I pre ordered today as well and got the coin. Sounds like you are much more excited about it than me. I can't believe Nintendo keeps giving away so much free crap (The packaging for the coin no doubt cost Big N more than the coin itself). They should use the money for R&D. On second thought, they probably have plenty of money tied up in R&D, I just wish it was more fruitful.

But anyway, Yeah I totally agree on your quote above. When you play a game nonstop just to beat it, it takes away from the experience.
I made that mistake when playing MP3, and ended up playing almost to the very end of the game, got burned out, and havent played it in a few months.

what?! you got the coin already? I pre-ordered my copy but the girl told me I had to wait until tomorrow. She went as far as to tell me they hadnt received any yet. I even paid for the copy on the spot to make sure I got one. I hate my gamestop!
